Excited by shaky-cam footage? Then you will love the 24 minutes of game play footage from Quantic Dream’s Beyond. Showing how you can control Ivan’s spirit and play at being a poltergeist as well as control Jodie through the kind of gestures, actions and button prompts that you’ll be familiar with from Heavy Rain.
Speaking of rain, Madison spent a lot of time getting wet, and we’re not thinking about that shower scene, and it seems that Jodie with also be exposed to plenty of precipitation whether she’s evading law enforcement officials on a train roof, fleeing from through a forest or using Ivan as a shield while running road blocks.

The quality of the video makes it hard to judge the game’s graphical fidelity, you’ll need to refer to Sony’s press conference footage for that, but the character animation looks to be more fluid than we saw in Heavy Rain. What do you think? Has Beyond made it onto your buy-list yet?

Looks amazing graphically even through that crappy cam.
One question though, was that Kara tech demo got anything to do with beyond or was Kara just a stand-alone tech presentation?

As far as i know it’s just a tech demo. But there is a rumour that Quantic Dreams are working on a second game..

Holy crap that looks awesome, from prank-like tipping cups over to total carnage! I can’t wait to play it. It looks like they might have simplified some of the quick-time controls too, there wasn’t any prompt for more than two buttons to be held down simultaneously, unlike HR which had up to four held down at once.
